A list of things that didn't carry over from C1 or that bother me/general feedback.

Selecting a galaxy on the map doesn't give you any information about it.
- No Warp Distance
- No Danger Factor
- No Information about how many warps are off of a galaxy
- NO info about DGs
- Info about stations is hard to see
Selected galaxies on the map stand out much more than the galaxy you are actually in.

When right-click transfering items from one ship to the next, Alias names are not displayed.

Tabbing from Login: to Password: doesn't highlight the password already in the box so you can type and replace it.

/lockout doesn't work along with most other /functions

Pressing the Enter key doesn't work to confirm dropping items one by one, but works to toss some.

Transfer Some command is inefective. Only workabout is to toss the amount you don't want to transfer and then transfer all and scoop the rest.

Can't Rapid toss by holding V.

Ship visibility while near a SpaceBase is quite annoying. Not being able to see what direction you're facing after you undock is also annoying.

No Transfer All function, though Ctrl/Shift moving is a nice addition.

Cannot see whispers with any ease.

"Not enough skill in Astral Travel" message is wrong. Says things like (3 jumps.) 1 more needed when in reality the galaxy is 4 jumps away.

"Set ship name" doesn't highlight old name so you can just type the new one. Have to highlight and delete.

Client Crash if you open Universe Map in Deep Space.

Target Area for a sun in Paxius is extremely large and makes all your clicks target it.

AP sketchy. Works really well when it wants to. Terrible the rest of the time. Approx.90% failure rate.

Hard to read descriptions of items in Trade tab of SpaceBase. Perhaps add a tinted backdrop to better contrast.

Not too fond of the item tabs in Trade being all in one line either. Much more time consuming to get to what you need.


Will edit and remove/add things as they come up.

the map in general is worse than c1 imo. too cluttered, too hard to see what gal you're in. No little stubs to know theres unexplored routes off it. Got so annoyed trying to double click sol, just used /ap in the end

Gal map will be getting a tool tip and some updates in functionality. I will be correcting station backgrounds. Hopefully the transfer functions will be added soon.

All chars start with an inherent ability to AP 1 jump.

Still kinda annoying. Would rather have unlimited AP, but a bit higher difficulty of AI's in the universe, particularly w4 shortcuts and w3.

This is Star Sonata, the game where w2 is more difficult for the intended level than the deepest parts of perilous space.

The message about Astral Travel is correct last that I seen.

Galaxy is 5 jumps away, insufficient level of astral travel, need 4. You start off with +1 jump away, each level of astral gives you that much farther from that.

They do work, just not in the events tab.

That's not working in my opinion.
